Oregon Supreme Court

State v. Benson

July 14, 2022370 Or. 58

Summary

The Oregon Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals and held that the defendant failed to show actual, substantial prejudice from the 91‑month pre‑indictment delay, so his due‑process claim was unsupported and the trial court’s denial of the motion to dismiss was proper. The Court also affirmed its authority to consider the entire trial record in reviewing such a motion.
